It's easy to either fix-up the generated code, or edit the sandbox code and merge it into trunk, but I'd rather keep to published code rather than commit the project to our own version of boost or add another step to the code generation.

Not exactly. I suggest you to use current SVN version. It is pretty
stable. I hope to release it pretty soon.
The main reason is describe here:
http://language-binding.net/pyplusplus/documentation/containers.html#indexing-suite-version-2-installation

The short version: Indexing Suite V2 was reworked and now you don't
need to patch Boost libraries and Py++ does all the work.

No, the Py++ you use, assumes that you installed indexing suite V2 to
the location you specified.
